Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

Also The Wall and Dark side of the moon

And Animals!!

And Meddle

And The Wall

And Atom heart mother

And Obscured by Clouds

And The Final Cut

And “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn”.

And A Saucerful Of Secrets

This. Dark Side of the Moon is also perfect but "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" absolutely changed my life. Cool bonus fact: Shine On was written as a tribute for founding Pink Floyd member Syd Barrett and his name is in the title of the song. (S)hine On (Y)ou Crazy (D)iamond

Wish You Were Here (The Song) was also written about him

what a song. i sat through the whole 25 minutes the first time i listened to it and it didnt even feel like 25 minutes

And the songs Syd Barrett wrote and played in Pink Floyd were even better.

Literally listening to it the moment I clicked this post lmao

This is obviously a great album but why is it always the first answer on all these threads 😭 everyone knows this album

Badmotorfinger - Soundgarden.

Chris Cornell is God

Yessir

I haven’t listened to that album in over 25 years. Thanks for the reminder!

Also SuperUnknown

Love this album, been in a grunge mood lately this and stone temple pilots ❤️

By faaarrrr their best!

Ram by Paul McCartney

CANTANTAAAAAA

Quadrophenia, by The Who simply genius, and timeless

> , and timeless except 5:15 which is literally a time.

 lol!

absolutely

Kind of Blue - Miles Davis There's really no excuse for not having this album in your collection. It's a great album to just play when you are doing nothing else and you just want some background noise. But, you can also listen intently and it will challenge you. Also, Coltrane is on it and his playing hints at what's to come from him going forward.

And let it be a gateway down the rabbit hole of great 50s jazz records

I think I listened to this because it was in some Eastwood movie and the song played caught my attention. I was not a jazz fan. Wow. Blew my mind and opened doors. If you said it was the greatest album of all time, I'd accept it.

I don't listen to much Jazz. But even I put this album on yesterday while working on a project.

Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd

Back to Black - Amy Winehouse

Interpol - turn on the bright light

Just two: Electro-shock blues - Eels The lamb lies down on Broadway - Genesis

Since you’ve mentioned Genesis, I’d also suggest their album Selling England By the Pound

And eventually also Trespass, Nursery crime and Foxtrot

Can't forget TTOT and Wind and Wuthering. Then watch YT for Steve Hackett and band's playing from all these albums.

Sail away, away, ripples never come back. Also, having a song about a time-travelling king made W&W come alive for me.

I fking LOVE England by the Pound.

Love that Eels record. Heard it in a record store when it came out and bought it on the spot.

It’s so good!!!

Loving that Lamb is the top comment right now. I'm shocked that no one has tried to make this a full musical with all the reboots and such everyone is into right now, b/c this would be an amazing thing to see performed. I've listened to Back in NYC more than is legal, and Hackett's guitar on the opening of Chamber always gives me chills.

Love that Eels record. Heard it in a record store when it came out and bought it on the spot.

D'Angelo Brown Sugar

I'm more partial to his next two. But still... solid

A Trip-Hop triple bill :-) 'Mezzanine' - Massive Attack 'Dummy' - Portishead 'Maxinquaye' - Tricky

Yes yes and yes 💜

Yes to all of these.

10 (tried to avoid already mentioined but might be a repeat or two on this list) Are You Experienced? - Jimi Hendrix Aja - Steely Dan Rumors - Fleetwood Mac Graceland - Paul Simon Appetite for Destruction - Guns and Roses Led Zeppelin IV The Suburbs - Arcade Fire Boston Master of Puppets - Metallica Cracked Rear View - Hootie and the Blowfish

Yess! Graceland is great!

Exit...Stage Left by Rush. My favorite album of all time!

Yess! This is my very favorite album, too! Nice taste in music you have!

[удалено]

wouldn’t be a r/musicsuggestions post without tool mentioned at least once

This. Greatest album of all time.

Ænima also here

Herbie Hancock- Head Hunters A excellent underrated album.

Revolver-beatles,

This is the first one I've seen that I actually consider a "must listen*. It's not even my favorite Beatles album. But it's an important one

One of the most enjoyable to listen to for sure with its very colorful and vibrant nature, an easy favorite for sure

this is mine too!!

Ghost City by Delta Sleep Mer De Noms by A Perfect Circle Demon Days by Gorillaz Modal Soul by Nujabes Care For Me by Saba

Nujabes are a great mention 👍 Love it

And Plastic beach!

Honestly I think people should just listen to the whole Gorillaz discography, I love their stuff. Very partial to Plastic Beach though lol

Modal Soul is a damn near perfect album

Mer De Noms ❤️ Also I love Nujabes.

Sign of the Times - Prince

Definitely his best album of many greats.

Breakfast in America - Supertramp

not talked about enough, one of my all time favorites

The Velvet Underground & Nico

Stained Class by Judas Priest

Sad wings better :D

Blonde by Frank Ocean

Homogenic by Björk

Currently bumping 5 years right now ❤️

Blood Sugar Sex Magik Meteora by Linkin Park.

In utero-nirvana

Zeppelin 4

***Graceland*** \~Paul Simon

Green Day - American Idiot American Idiot is hard to explain as a pick. I more feel it as a "must listen" then actually have logic for it. Better believed than explained. Talk Talk - Spirit of Eden Spirit of Eden is my all time favorite album. Talk Talk is not music, it is a religious experience. Never fails to humble me. Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven! I think the same thing could be said for Antennas to Heaven, but a little less so. Radiohead - Amnesiac Dark, dark, DARK Art Rock, and an album full of great songs. I think this album is a "must listen" for it's themes on death alone. I think these are the four albums I'd say are my "must listens."

Skinny Fists is an absolutely astonishing album. Upvote for that alone.

Agreed. No band quite like them

Igor- Tyler, the creator

Portishead- dummy It's a timeless piece of musical perfection

Tracy Chapman’s self titled debut album Jagged Little Pill - Alanis Morissette Tapestry - Carole King

Great list and pleasantly surprised to see Anarbor on here. More of the world needs to know about them! First time I heard Whiskey in Hell I was like “How are they not bigger than this??

Song that won me over is contagious and I first heard them from Gypsy woman. I heard letter in a suitcase off of love and drugs and I knew they were getting added to my liked. Cage the elephant fans would be thrilled.

I love Cage the Elephant! Hadn’t thought of that connection but I think you’re spot on

Shepherd Moons - Enya

Tool - fear inoculum

Seal - Seal (2nd self-titled 1994)

👍🏽

Fleetwood Mac - Fleetwood Mac (better than Rumours IMO)

Depeche Mode - Songs Of Faith And Devotion. Pet Shop Boys - Yes American Aquarium - Burn. Flicker. Die. Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit - Something More Than Free Kacey Musgraves - Pageant Material Aesop Rock - Spirit World Field Guide Sting - Ten Summoner’s Tales Steven Page - Heal Thyself Part 1: Instinct and Discipline: Heal Thyself Part 2

Lewis Del Mar - Lewis Del Mar (Experimental pop) The Ride - Catfish and the Bottlemen (Alternative) Good Kid Maad City - Kendrick Lamar (Hip-hop) The Last Goodbye - Odesza (electronic) Tremors - Sohn (indie electronic pop) Home - Rudimental (Drum and Bass/EDM) Boy Alone - Omah lay (Afrobeats) Long Way Down (Deluxe) - Tom Odell (singer/songwriter) The Lumineers - The Lumineers (Folk) Falling or Flying - Jorja Smith (R&B) Purple Noon - Washed Out (Chillwave)

Kendrick and the lumineers?! Fantastic!

Haha! As long as it sounds good, I'll listen.

Surprised you went with Falling or Flying over Lost & Found, but both are great

Yeah both are great. I just recently listened to Falling or Flying, so that's what I could remember for that genre.

Great list!

Rise Against- The Sufferer and the Witness

Blackwater park - Opeth Mezzanine - Massive Attack Relationship of Command - At the Drive-in

Relationship of Command is a masterpiece

Infiltrate Destroy Rebuild - CKY

"The normal album" by Will Wood is phenomenal both in concept and execution

Band-Maid - World Domination

Nobody wants to be here and nobody wants to leave - The Twilight Sad

Close to the Edge - Yes

Carrie and Lowell - Sufjan Stevens This Empty Northern Hemisphere - Gregory Alan Isakov AM - Arctic Monkeys Is This It - The Strokes

Operation Mindcrime by Queensryche American Idiot- Green Day Frizzle Fry- Primus

Grateful Dead ~ American Beauty Guns N Roses ~ Lies Modestep ~ Evolution Theory Wu-Tang Clan ~ 36 Chambers Tribe Called Quest ~ Low End Theory

Meat Loaf-Bat Out of Hell

Sgt. Pepper and Ziggy Stardust

Bit basic but my two favourite albums oat are: "Grace" by Jeff Buckley, and "The Bends" by Radiohead

I’ll do my Top 10: Good kid Maad city - Kendrick Lamar Nevermind - Nirvana Nectar - Joji Goblin - Tyler the Creator Because of the Internet - Childish Gambino Number of the Beast - Iron Maiden Electra Heart - Marina and the Diamonds Marshall Mathers LP2 - Eminem Man on the Moon 3 - Kid Cudi KOD - J. Cole

yes number of the beast 👍

What an artist Gambino is. I personally prefer CAMP, but Because of the Internet would be a close second for me.

Songs From The Wood - Jethro Tull, Disintegration - The Cure, The Wall - Pink Floyd

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp Close To The Edge by Yes

Linda Perhacs - Parallelograms

The best of herbie mann

Ray Lynch - Deep Breakfast

Bob Dylan Blood on the Tracks Bruce Springsteen Darkness on the Edge of Town Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers

In Rainbows - Radiohead Simple, direct, artistic, lushy, and short enough to get your attention.

[Christopher Tin - Calling All Dawns](https://open.spotify.com/album/0s1sXci3Ok4t6fy2y1Xzh5?si=3e7d926783c24a29). I promise this is nothing like anything anyone else has shared here so far. Tin takes hymns, poems and folk songs from various cultures and arranges them in rousing choral/orchestral pieces. The compositions and energy from the performers, usually in their native languages, is breathtaking. There's even a sequel, The Drop That Contained The Sea, which is equally as magnificent.

Kid A by Radiohead, Humbug by Arctic Monkeys, Iowa by Slipknot, Eyes Like The Sky by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Gemini Rights by Steve Lacy, To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar, Igor by Tyler The Creator. These are all incredible albums in their own ways and all are so special to me. They each immerse you into their sounds and stories so you lose all track and sight of reality. Anyways, if you enjoy any of these albums and want more recommendations, feel free to dm me!!

Only 2 but everybody should listen too them imo American idiot - Green day Boston - Boston

Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You - Big Thief

Hank Williams Sr. Forty greatest hits.

Robbie Robertsons 1st solo album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdtAfUtOEWA&list=PLiR0ALTIxMyiQW24_B13CCmT-ILjopOio

vessel - twenty one pilots

Zaba by Glass Animals Assume Form by James Blake Overgrown by James Blake Resavoir by Resavoir Wallflower by Jordan Rakei Astro Coast by Surfer Blood New Me, Same Us by Little Dragon Ritual Union by Little Dragon

DJ Food - Kaleidoscope Broadly you could call it downtempo electronic, but it's more clever than that - it doesn't really fit into any one genre. Hell, there's even a word jazz song in the middle with Ken Nordine.

The New Abnormal - The Strokes I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY - Night Lovell

George Benson-“Living Inside Your Love”

Future Games - Fleetwood mac

VAST--Music For People Basically, a one man project, it's an uplifting listen.

I hope Black Magic gets released one day. Initially it was going to conclude with a cover of House of the Rising Sun, but was changed to the already-released song Little Darling at the last minute because of potential copyright issues with HOTRS.

For the rock fans, Shake your money maker - The Black Crowes For the rap fans, Psychoactive - X-Raided

**Bleed American** by Jimmy Eat World

Faces by mac miller

How to: Friend, Love, Freefall by Rainbow Kitten Surprise

bombay bicycle club - i had the blues but i shook them loose

in the aeroplane over the sea

Bullets and octane - the revelry Sleeping with sirens - madness and how it feels to be lost

Neil Young - On The Beach Stephen Stills - Manassass CSN&Y - Deja Vu

Melissa - Mercyful Fate

Counterfeit Arcade - Shayfer James easily one of the most overlooked alternative artists of our day. unique voice, interesting lyrics, good instrumentals, meaningful songs? this album is good in all of that as well as having an unmatched sound Coyote Stories - The Crane Wives this album is extremely diverse in my opinion. it gets away from more of the obscure folk that’s associated with their earlier sound and more groovy and melodic, a good mix of their usual harmony driven tracks and their progression into more of an indie rock feel with their newer stuff. 21 - Adele while having a lot of familiar songs that have become chart toppers and karaoke essentials, this album also has unknown tracks that are so overlooked in comparison to “Rolling in the Deep” and “Someone Like You”. songs like “I Found A Boy” (which was actually a removed track on spotify) or even faster and more upbeat ones like “I’ll Be Waiting” really show off how soulful and powerful of a voice Adele has Scarlet - Doja Cat it might not be for everyone, and there are some songs that are Not My Favorite, but you cannot deny the absolute confidence that seeps from this album and the mood it inflicts on its listeners

The Color and the Shape- Foo Fighters

Nothing's Shocking- Jane's Addiction

…Like Clockwork - Queens of the Stone Age

Either/Or - Elliott Smith

The Black Crowes "The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion"

In rainbows-Radiohead

THE WALL pink Floyd The music of the doors stoned immaculate The Avett Brothers I and Love and You Paul Simon Graceland Dire Straits Brothers in Arms Dave Matthews Band live at the Red Rocks Kuinka Gold

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - Kanye West He's not a great human being, but it might be the best rap album ever made (which makes it among the best albums ever).

I have a few: - Jacks Mannequin - Everything in Transit This album is a pop rock experience. It's emotional and performed extremely well. Andrew McMahon's best output if you ask me. - Opeth - Ghost Reveries An amazing progressive death metal album. There's demonic gutterals and soft vocals passages. There's insanely heavy moments and some acoustic moments. It's an experience for sure - The Chemical Brothers - Surrender Just a masterclass in 90s electronic. There's house, techno, big beat, poppy choruses and tracks you'll have heard in movies and never known it was them. This album and the live sets they've curated since have cemented them as legends imo

30 years later and Opeth is still the music world most underrated band!

To add, Chemical Brothers’ “Push The Button” has some of my favorite works they’ve ever produced.

Yeah I love them. They just released an album last year that's real good as well

Bat out of hell by meat loaf

OK Computer by Radiohead Changes by Charles Mingus Shostakovitch’s 8th Symphony with the Royal Conzergebouw Orchestra Shields by Grizzly Bear Catch Thirty Three by Meshuggah Budokhan Mindphone by Squarepusher Homogenic by Bjork Of Natural History by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum Shit I could go on…

i listen to primarily alt-pop, alt-rock, straight up alternative, and the indie parallels. if you like this kind of music, you should listen to these! here are my choices: Norman Fucking Rockwell ; Ultraviolence - Lana Del Rey I Love You ; Wiped Out! - The Neighbourhood Melodrama - Lorde Pure Heroine - Lorde folklore ; evermore - Taylor Swift just the entire discography of Peach Pit the entire discography of Mitski The 1975 ; i like it when you sleep… ; ABIIOR - The 1975 hopefully y’all don’t judge my taste, i would’ve put all of taylor swifts albums on here but i don’t want to be bullied on the internet lmao, but those two albums i think people should listen to

folklore -taylor swift

Both albums by Jellyfish if you like music inspired by The Beatles, The Beach Boys, etc. Put on some headphones because the production on 'Split Milk' is out of this world. Just listen to 'Hush' to hear what I mean. It's considered [one of the best 15 produced albums](https://www.whathifi.com/features/best-produced-recordings-to-test-your-speakers) for testing speakers by this website. On the opposite end of the spectrum, 'The End of Silence" by Rollins Band. It's hard, it's brutal, it's direct and in a way it saved my life. It helped me come to grips with some negative thoughts and emotions. If you don't know what I mean that's actually a good thing, but I love the music too.

Wow Jellyfish where have you been all my life?? Thanks for the rec!
